In the Witchwood of Hearthstone, things are getting wild. Rogues are getting a new version of Yogg-Saron – and with it, a big RNG factor. We show you the new card Tess Graymane.
On April 12, it will finally be here – the latest expansion of Hearthstone will be released and the Year of the Raven will begin. But new cards for “The Witchwood” are still being released, which we don’t want to withhold from you. Today, there are a few highlights for Rogues and Paladins!
Paladins with the new legendary minion “The Glass Knight”
Paladins are waiting for the legendary minion The Glass Knight. For 4 mana, he comes with stats of 4/3 and Divine Shield. His special feature: Whenever the Paladin player heals a character, the Glass Knight regains Divine Shield! With various healing effects, the Glass Knight can be permanently protected.
As a neutral legendary minion for 7 mana (with super cool artwork) is Countess Ashglow. She has solid stats of 6/6 and allows the player to draw up to 3 cards from the deck as a Battlecry – namely one with Divine Shield, one with Deathrattle, and one with Lifesteal.
Shamans finally receive an effective way to get rid of their unwanted totems. The Totemager is a beast minion for 4 mana with weak stats of 2/3 and Taunt. However, as a Battlecry, he destroys all the player’s totems and gains +2/+2 for each totem consumed.
Tess Graymane as the legendary minion of the Rogue
For our Rogue friends, there’s the Fog Phantom. For 4 mana, it has solid stats of 3/5 and the effect that the Phantom gains +1/+1 each time the Rogue plays a card with Echo. Particularly well combined with the next card…
Also for Rogues comes the spell Pocket Theft for 2 mana. The Rogue gains a random card from the opponent’s class into their hand. The spell has Echo, so it can be played multiple times in the same turn to fill the Rogue’s hand with cards from the opponent’s class.
Also, Rogues are getting a Legendary – this time even with rank and name. Tess Graymane is a legendary minion for 8 mana with stats of 6/6 and essentially a “Yogg-Saron” in miniature. As a Battlecry, she plays every card of another class that was previously played by the Rogue back into the game – the targets are determined randomly.
What do you think of these new cards? How do you like Tess Graymane as a little Yogg-Saron?
Wizards are also getting a dose of RNG – they can even summon Legendaries from the “Wild” game mode!
